摘要
We consider the behavior of quantum Hall edges away from the Luttinger liquid fixed point that occurs in the low-energy, large-system limit. Using the close links between quantum Hall wave functions and conformal field theories, we construct effective Hamiltonians from general principles and then constrain their forms by considering the effect of bulk symmetries on the properties of the edge. In examining the effect of bulk interactions on this edge, we find remarkable simplifications to these effective theories which allow for a very accurate description of the low-energy physics of quantum Hall edges relatively far away from the Luttinger liquid fixed point, and which apply to small systems and higher energies.
